What are the 4 organic bases (letters)?

A, T, C, G

When only one base is substituted or deleted from a DNA sequence and the rest of the sequence stays healthy, what type of gene mutation is that?

Point mutation

What type of mutation is shown given the example sentence THE FAT CAT ATE THE RAT: -- THE FTC ATA TET HER AT

Frameshift deletion

What type of chromosome mutation is shown in the following image?

Inversion

True/False: Mutations are always planned and can never occur randomly.

False

t/f regulatory sequences only occur before (upstream) the gene

false

When a mutation results in a different amino acid

missense

when a mutation results in a stop codon in the middle of the gene, this is called a _________________________

Nonsense mutation

how many bases are in a codon?

three

true or false, an intron is coding DNA

false

A mutated gene can result in a changed ______________.

Protein

What are the 4 types of Chromosomal Mutations?

Deletion, Duplication, Inversion, Translocation

Humans have how many chromosomes TOTAL?
